"Give somebody a hard time" -> nghĩa là cư xử gay gắt, biến mọi thử trở nên khó khăn đối với ai; khiến ai khổ sở.

Ví dụ
She left the company because her boss was giving her a really hard time.

“I’m sure he will give me a hard time about the fact they clipped (cắt bớt) us in the latest Ashes,” said Morrison, before adding, “which many of you from other countries wouldn’t have the faintest (không rõ rệt) idea what I’m talking about – but the Australian journalists and British journalists will know very, very well.”

If I think about it I guess it would probably have something to do with it being the closest thing to candy that I could get my hands on, and hey, they were fruits, so mom couldn’t give me a hard time about it. Picking berries is still probably one of my first memories of the importance of seasonal cooking.
